Content about Caucus

Caucuses across the county last week reported record numbers of attendees. A combination of interesting races including a run against Senator Hatch, and strong encouragement from the LDS Church resulted in many first time attendees. This was also the first time for the new precincts and the Republican Party in particular struggled with the size of the new precincts.

It is Caucus time!! Which means it is also time for the bi-annual criticism of Utah’s political system. Many voices are saying it is time to move from the current caucus system to a direct primary system. If you are questioning the current system, take this opportunity to participate and closely observe the process. You might change your mind. I did.
